Saracens Rugby Football Club

woodcock and botes
for
??? and ???

Castro + Houghard + cash or another player?

for

Jones + Cueto

Do you want to leave that deal mate?

I would be willing to add:

Neil Briggs
Rob Vickers
Gareth Steenson (not sure if he is EQ or not. heard he may be a while back)

and if you put something else into the deal Jon Clarke or Lewis Moody could be an option.

think il leave it mate not willing to lose Freuen at the moment sorry

dont have to have pocock involved, just need world class in return if woodcock is involved.

What would it take for me to sign Mullen and Mercy?

The following players of yours interest me

FL David Pocock (Australia)
WG Mark Cueto (England)
FB Mike Brown (England)

I see what you mean. I tell you what I'll do...we'll do the deal and I'll loan you him back to after the world cup.

Can't see how we could put together a deal mate would you do Olly Morgan for Mike Brown?

Pocock and 36.

Can we thrash out a deal?

You think the above if fair Pete?

Prefer both mine

I couldn't have tried much more! Lol...anything else?

For Mullen....

Rate Mermoz highly (just off world class) mate, would take a substantial gain elsewhere with somebody of a similar standard for him to leave.

Can see your thinking but not after losing top class for potential. How about:

Mermoz + Wiggles + Gray + 8m

36 + Parra + Mullen

Kitchener in too might tempt me lol.

Really keen on Parra as you can guess but looks like nothing is happening.

I'm happy to do deals on top players but need similar standard back really. Can see a lot if sides doing well during the WC but it's only a handful of games, not worth losing your best players over.

The obvious players interest me Pocock etc but can't see us doing anything for him. I really like Mermoz and I'm prett keen to keep hold.

I do like Mullen & 36 but need quality in to lose Mermoz and just see anyone in that list I fancy.

I'd prob need Parra involved mate, sorry.

Not letting strauss go sorry....peel maybe!

Yea it seems that way, gotta lose quality to gain it tho lol. No probs mate

Waldouck + Gray + 5m

36 + Mullen

Enq

Ah right, what's happened in 3 hours. Has he broke his leg or something.

Be like that then, Parra is pump!!!

Does Adam Thompstone interest you in something?

Mermoz + Ojo + Slater

36 + Mullen + Jane + Kitchener

Racked my brains mate....

Needs to get his Worcester place nailed first, Rawlinson starts the bigger matches. I was quite surprised with that as I thought he was doing well in the champ.

Haven't heard that, just thought Rawlinson was prefered. He'll prob start I guess, his loose play is suited to a Ba's game.

Bizarrely Attwood lacks a bit of nastiness. Always has. Have known of him through local rugby for ages and always the same.

Kitchener does not lack the physical edge it just takes time to hit physical maturity. Rawlinson is one tough man and for the championship and the AP perfect. I released him as i had so many 4s.

Great person for Kitchener to learn off. Personally i really rate kitchener.

Yea agree with that mate, a move to Leicester would work wonders for him. Him and Parling would make a great partnership with Deacon struggling for injuries.

Dus + Toeava + Hines + A.Brown + Steyn
for
Pocock + Jane + Nallet + Botha + Davies

Enq.

Sorry mate completly forgot to get back to you. Seriously tempted by Bezy for 36 but leaves me short at scrummie durning the world cup. Can we hold off for a little while and I'll come back to you after the foreigns?

Really tempted.

Any way of including Chuter into this deal?

Would you open to a deal based around a Houghard and Rees swap?

Well I would do

Houghard and Briggs/Vickers for Rees

or as I put yesterday

Jones + Cueto

for

Castro + Houghard + Vickers/Briggs/Croall

Can't really afford to lose Barrow (eq) for all on eq players, some of who will be at w.c sorry

What would it take for Mullen and mercy?

If not Chuteer, what would you be willing to add?

My concerns with the deal are Dus is my captain, and Toeava may potentially be available during the W/C...

We any closer to getting something done mate?

Toeava + Dus
for
Jane + Pocock

Will deal on this then. Stick it on confirms.

My understanding is that you were considering one of these offers.

Houghard and Briggs/Vickers for Rees

or as I put yesterday

Jones + Cueto

for

Castro + Houghard + Vickers/Briggs/Croall

I can't lose those players. They are too important to my squad. I wouldn't let them go for any price at the moment.

One deal I could do if you were interested is

Sheridan and Houghard

for

Jones and Rees

But you would be getting an England International in the front row? Gold dust

Here's my last shot

Sheridan, Castro and Houghard

for

Cueto, Jones and Rees?

If you need Hines/Nallet involved, i'd want something extra in my favour.

Sisi and Lowe and ???
for
Mercey and Botha?

hmmm I am not so happy with losing the EQ for just Rees as Rees will be missing for WC and 6N.

I will get back to you

And not injured at the minute and in French squad....that's a terrible offer which I'll counter with Arr for Parra?

I think Hines > Nallet, and you think the same as you have been chasing that swap for a while.

I also think Cole > Cueto, so I would be weakenening my EQ contingent. I'm not overly fussed on Cueto. He's getting on, and i've got a good set of wingers as it is.

I'm not overly bothered on brining in Jones - I think Jones is going downhill, and Cole uphill, so that swap doesn't really interest me.

Hines, Dusautoir, Toeava
for
Nallet, Pocock, Jane

Is the basis of our negotiations. We both agree on Dus and Pocock even and Toeava and Jane even, but I think (and think you do too) Hines > Nallet, so i need something else in my favour.

Could be any of:

Chuter/Duffey
Wood/Crane
Ranger/Tuilagi
Goode/Allen

Let me know your thoughts
